Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper, ensuring it extends up the sides. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Sift together cocoa powder, flour, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Set aside. (3 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk egg yolks and half of the granulated sugar until pale and thick, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside. (5 minutes)

04

Step
7 mins

In a separate, large bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until foamy. Add vanilla extract. Gradually add the remaining granulated sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form. (7 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Gently fold the yolk mixture into the egg whites, being careful not to deflate the whites. Gradually fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix. (5 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. (2 minutes)

07

Step
15 mins

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back lightly when touched. Be careful not to overbake. (15 minutes)

08

Step
3 mins

Immediately loosen the edges of the cake with a knife and invert it onto a clean sheet of parchment paper generously dusted with confectioners' sugar. Remove the parchment paper from the pan. Sprinkle the top of the cake with more confectioners' sugar. (3 minutes)

09

Step
1 hrs

Starting from one short end, gently roll the cake up with the parchment paper inside. This helps prevent cracking. Let it cool completely in the rolled-up position. (60 minutes)

10

Step
5 mins

Unroll the cooled cake carefully. Spread the chilled whipped cream evenly over the surface. Arrange the peeled bananas along one short end. (5 minutes)

11

Step
3 mins

Roll the cake up tightly around the bananas and whipped cream. Place the cake roll seam-side down on a serving platter. (3 minutes)

12

Step
30 mins

Frost the cake roll with the prepared chocolate frosting. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the frosting to set. (30 minutes)

13

Step

Slice and serve. Enjoy!

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin layer of chocolate ganache under the whipped cream.
To prevent the cake from sticking, ensure the parchment paper is well-greased or use a silicone baking mat.
Feel free to experiment with different fillings, such as berries, Nutella, or peanut butter.
